Brad, here is the info from my owner's manual, which is the second printing. I have an early model '02 XLT, and I see you are in the Great White North, so I don't know if this info will match your vehicle. If you need an owner's manual Dead Link Removed.

According to my owner's manual, there are no fuses for towing located in the fuse panel under the dash.

The Power Distribution Box under the hood contains a couple fuses related to towing. #13 is a 30A Maxi Cartridge Fuse Labeled "Trailer Tow Battery". #27 is a Mini Fuse labeled "Trailer Tow Lamps". I suspect #27 is the one you are looking for.

The Rear Relay Box & The Auxiliary Relay Box also contain items related to towing:

No problem. Raining bad here too!! Was gonna wash and wax the Ex. That will have to wait. If you have a multimeter you can check the continuity on all the fuses in the power distribution box to find a blown one.

Where the rear and auxilary relay boxes? Is rear the one in the cargo area with a plastic door over it?
